OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the restraint systems: • Three-point lap and shoulder belts for the driver and all passengers • Advanced Front A.
NOTE: The Advanced Fr ont Air Bags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the air bag to have different rates of inflation based on several factors, including the severity and type of collision. Here are some simple steps you can take to minimize the risk of harm from a deploying air bag: 1.
Y ou should read the instructions provided with your child r estraint to make sure that you are using it properly . 2. All occupants should always wear their lap and shoulder belts properly . 3. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the Advanced Front Air Bags room to inflate.
W ARNING! (Continued) • In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buck- led up. Y ou can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled up properly .
W ARNING! • It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. • Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Operating Instructions 1. Enter the vehicle and close the door . Sit back and adjust the seat. 2. The seat belt latch plate is above the back of the front seat and next to your arm in the rear seat. Grasp the latch plate and pull out the belt.
3. When the belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.” W ARNING! • A belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries.
W ARNING! (Continued) • A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. Y ou are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used together .
W ARNING! • A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of injury in a collision. The belt forces won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your abdo- men. Always wear the lap part of your seat belt as low as possible and keep it snug.
Rear Center Lap/Shoulder Belt Retractor Lockout — Four-Door Models Only This feature is designed to lock the retractor whenever the 60% rear seatback is not fully latched. This prevents someone fr om wearing the rear center lap/shoulder belt when the rear seatback is not fully latched.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure Use the following procedur e to untwist a twisted lap/ shoulder belt. 1. Position the latch plate as close as possible to the anchor point. 2. At about 6 to 12 in (15 to 30 cm) above the latch plate, grasp and twist the belt webbing 180 degrees to create a fold that begins immediately above the latch plate.
W ARNING! Position the shoulder belt height adjusters so that the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder . Failure to adjust the safety belt properly could reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and increase the risk of injury in a collision.
If the passenger seating position is equipped with an ALR and is being used for normal usage: Only pull the belt webbing out far enough to comfortably wrap ar ound the occupant’s mid-section so as to not activate the ALR. If the ALR is activated, you will hear a ratcheting sound as the belt retracts.
How T o Disengage The Automatic Locking Mode Unbuckle the combination lap/shoulder belt and allow it to r etract completely to disengage the Automatic Locking Mode and activate the vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Failure to replace the belt and retractor assembly could increase the risk of injury in collisions. Seat Belt Pretensioners The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices that are designed to remove slack fr om the seat belt in the event of a collision.
The BeltAlert 威 warning sequence begins after the vehicle speed is over 5 mph (8 km/h), by blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding an intermittent chime. Once the sequence starts, it will continue for the entire duration or until the respective seatbelts are fastened.
Seat Belts And Pregnant Women W e recommend that pregnant women use seat belts throughout their pregnancy . Keeping the mother safe is the best way to keep the baby safe. Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt across the thighs and as snug acr oss the hips as possible.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) — Air Bags This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and right front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s Advanced Front Air Bag is mounted in the steering wheel.
NOTE: The Driver and Passenger Advanced Front Air Bags are certified to new Federal regulations. The Advanced Front Air Bags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the air bag to have differ ent rates of inflation that are based on several factors, including the severity and type of collision.
Air Bag System Components Y our vehicle may be equipped with the following air bag system components: • Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) • Air Bag W arning Light • Steering Wheel and Column .
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not put anything on or around the air bag covers or attempt to open them manually . Y ou may damage the air bags and you could be injured because the air bags may no longer be functional. The protective covers for the air bag cushions are designed to open only when the air bags are inflating.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB) — If Equipped Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB) may provide enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact. The SAB is marked with an air bag label sewn into the outboard side of the front seats.
Along with seat belts and pretensioners, Advanced Front Air Bags work with the Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag and the passenger side knee bolster to provide improved protection for the driver and front passenger . Side air bags also work with seat belts to improve occupant protection.
The side air bags will not deploy in all side collisions. Side air bag deployment will depend on the severity and type of collision. Because air bag sensors measure vehicle deceleration over time, vehicle speed and damage by themselves are not good indicators of whether or not an air bag should have deployed.
W ARNING! Ignoring the Air Bag W arning Light in your instru- ment panel could mean you won’t have the air bags to protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on as a bulb check when the .
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB) Inflator Units — If Equipped The Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags Inflator Units (if equipped) are designed to activate only in certain side collisions.
• T urn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the ignition key is removed. • Unlock the doors automatically . In or der to r eset the Enhanced Accident Response System functions after an event, the ignition switch must be changed from IGN ON to IGN OFF .
• As the air bags deflate you may see some smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal by-product of the process that generates the non-toxic gas used for air bag inflation. These airborne particles may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not attempt to modify any part of your air bag system. The air bag may inflate accidentally or may not function properly if modifications are made. T ake your vehicle to an authorized dealer for any air bag system service.
W ARNING! (Continued) • It is dangerous to try to repair any part of the air bag system yourself. Be sure to tell anyone who works on your vehicle that it has an air bag system. Air Bag W arning Light Y ou will want to have the air bags ready to inflate for your protection in a collision.
Event Data Recorder (EDR) This vehicle is equipped with an event data recor der (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems per- formed.
Child Restraints Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up at all times, including babies and children. Every state in the United States, and every Canadian province, r equires that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law , and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
Summary Of Recommendations For Restraining Children In V ehicles Child Size, Height, W eight or Age Recommended T ype of Child Restraint Infants and T oddlers Children who ar e two years old or younge.
Infants And Child Restraints Safety experts recommend that children ride rearward- facing in the vehicle until they are two years old or until they reach either the height or weight limit of their rear facing child safety seat. T wo types of child restraints can be used rearward-facing: infant carriers and convertible child seats.
Older Children And Child Restraints Children who are two years old or who have outgrown their rear -facing convertible child seat can ride forward- facing in the vehicle.
Children T oo Large For Booster Seats Children who are large enough to wear the shoulder belt comfortably , and whose legs are long enough to bend over the front of the seat when their back is against the seatback, should use the seat belt in a rear seat.

What is the weight limit (child’s weight + weight of the child restraint) for using the LA TCH anchorage system to attach the child restraint? 65 lbs (29.5 kg) Use the LA TCH anchorage system until the combined weight of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.
Can two child restraints be attached using a common lower LA TCH anchorage? No Never “share” a LA TCH anchorage with two or more child restraints. If the center position does not have dedicated LA.
Locating The LA TCH Anchorages The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback, below the anchorage sym- bols on the seatback. They are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint.
Locating The LA TCH Anchorages In addition, there are tether strap anchors lo- cated behind each r ear seatback, near to the floor . Latch Anchorages (Four-Door Models) T ether Strap Mounting (T wo-Do.
LA TCH-compatible child restraint systems will be equipped with a rigid bar or a flexible strap on each side. Each will have a hook or connector to attach to the lower anchorage and a way to tighten the connection to the anchorage. Forward-facing child restraints and some rear -facing infant r estraints will also be equipped with a tether strap.
T o Install A LA TCH-compatible Child Restraint 1. If the selected seating position has a Switchable Auto- matic Locking Retractor (ALR) seat belt, stow the seat belt, following the instructions below . See the section “Installing Child Restraints Using the V ehicle Seat Belt” to check what type of seat belt each seating position has.
How T o Stow An Unused ALR Seatbelt When using the LA TCH attaching system to install a child r estraint, stow all ALR seat belts that are not being used by other occupants or being used to secure child restraints. An unused belt could injure a child if they play with it and accidentally lock the seatbelt retractor .
Installing Child Restraints Using The V ehicle Seat Belt The seat belts in the passenger seating positions ar e equipped with either a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) or a cinching latch plate or both.

What is the weight limit (child’s weight + weight of the child restraint) for using the T ether Anchor with the seat belt to attach a forward facing child restraint? W eight limit of the Child Restr.
Installing A Child Restraint with a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) 1. Place the child seat in the center of the seating position. For some second row seats, you may need to recline the seat and/or raise the head restraint to get a better fit.
9. T est that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat at the belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direction. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally , and pull it tight if necessary .
Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally , and pull it tight if necessary . If the buckle or the cinching latch plate is too close to the belt path opening of the child restraint, you may have trouble tightening the seat belt.
3. Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the top tether anchorage as shown in the diagram. 4. Remove slack in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer ’s instructions.
W ARNING! • An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchorage position directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
For the r ecommended viscosity and quality grades, refer to “Maintenance Procedur es” in “Maintaining Y our V ehi- cle”. NON-DETERGENT OR STRAIGHT MINERAL OILS MUST NEVER BE USED. A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation.

Manual Heating And Air Conditioning The Manual T emperature Controls consist of a series of outer rotary dials and inner push knobs. Blower Control Rotate this contr ol to regulate the amount of air forced through the venti- lation system in any mode.
T emperature Control Rotate this control to regulate the tem- perature of the air inside the passenger compartment. Rotating the dial left into the blue area of the scale indicates cooler temperatures, while rotating right into the red area indicates warmer temperatures.
Bi-Level Air is directed through the panel and floor outlets. NOTE: For all settings, except full cold or full hot, there is a dif ference in temperature between the upper and lower outlets. The warmer air flows to the floor outlets. This feature gives improved comfort during sunny but cool conditions.
NOTE: • Continuous use of the Recirculation mode may make the inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur . Extended use of this mode is not recommended. • The use of the Recirculation mode in cold or damp weather will cause windows to fog on the inside, because of moisture buildup inside the vehicle.
Automatic T emperature Control (A TC) — If Equipped Automatic Operation The Automatic T emperature Control system automati- cally maintains the climate in the cabin of the vehicle at the comfort levels desired by the driver and passenger . Operation of the system is quite simple.
The recommended setting for maximum comfort is 72°F (22°C) for the average person; however , this may vary . NOTE: • The temperatur e setting can be adjusted at anytime without affecting automatic operation.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts. W ARNING! • When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key fob from the ignition and lock your vehicle. • Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Normal Starting NOTE: Normal starting of either a cold or a warm engine is obtained without pumping or pressing the accelerator pedal. T urn the ignition switch to the ST AR T position and release when the engine starts.
W ARNING! (Continued) • If the vehicle has a discharged battery , booster cables may be used to obtain a start from a booster battery or the battery in another vehicle. This type of start can be dangerous if done improperly . Refer to “Jump Starting” in “What T o Do In Emergen- cies” for further information.
W ith T ip Start – Automatic T ransmission Only If the engine fails to start after you have followed the “Normal Starting” or “Extreme Cold W eather” proce- dures, it may be flooded. T o clear any excess fuel, push the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor and hold it.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION — IF EQUIPPED W ARNING! Y ou or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended without having the parking brake fully applied. The parking brake should al- ways be applied when the driver is not in the vehicle, especially on an incline.
Shifting Fully press the clutch pedal before shifting gears. As you release the clutch pedal, lightly press the accelerator pedal. Y ou should always use first gear when starting from a standing position.
Downshifting Moving from a high gear down to a lower gear is recommended to preserve brakes when driving down steep hills. In addition, downshifting at the right time provides better acceleration when you desire to resume speed. Downshift progr essively .
Manual T ransmission Downshift Speeds in MPH (KM/H) Gear Selec- tion 6t o5 5t o4 4t o3 3t o2 2t o1 Maxi- mum Speed 80 (129) 70 (1 13) 50 (81) 30 (48) 15 (24) NOTE: V ehicle speeds shown in the chart above are for 2H and 4H only , vehicle speeds in 4L would be signifi- cantly less.
AUTOMA TIC TRANSMISSION — IF EQUIPPED CAUTION! Damage to the transmission may occur if the follow- ing precautions are not observed: • Shift into P ARK only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. • Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop and the engine is at idle speed.
W ARNING! (Continued) number of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever . Do not leave the ignition key in or near the vehicle. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
Five-Speed Automatic T ransmission The shift lever position display (located in the instrument cluster) indicates the transmission gear range. Y ou must press the brake pedal to move the shift lever out of P ARK (refer to “Brake/T ransmission Shift Interlock System” in this section).
Gear Ranges DO NOT race the engine when shifting from P ARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range. NOTE: After selecting any gear range, wait a moment to allow the selected gear to engage before accelerating. This is especially important when the engine is cold.
W ARNING! • Never use the P ARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle move- ment and possible injury or damage. • Y our vehicle could move and injure you and others if it is not completely in P ARK.
W ARNING! (Continued) reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever . Do not leave the key in or near the vehicle. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
NEUTRAL Use this range when the vehicle is standing for pr olonged periods with the engine running. The engine may be started in this range. Apply the parking brake and shift the transmission into P ARK if you must leave the vehicle. W ARNING! Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off the ignition to coast down a hill.
When frequent transmission shifting occurs (such as when operating the vehicle under heavy loading condi- tions, in hilly terrain, traveling into str ong head winds, or while towing heavy trailers), u.
5. Restart the engine. 6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the problem is no longer detected, the transmission will r eturn to normal operation. NOTE: Even if the transmission can be reset, we r ecom- mend that you visit your authorized dealer at your earliest possible convenience.
W ARNING! Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing an accident or personal injury .
FOUR–WHEEL DRIVE OPERA TION (COMMAND-TRAC I 姞 OR ROCK-TRAC 姞 ) W ARNING! Failure to engage a position completely can cause transfer case damage or loss of power and vehicle control. Y ou could have a collision. Do not drive the vehicle unless the transfer case is fully engaged.
In the event that additional traction is required, the transfer case 4H and 4L positions can be used to lock the front and rear driveshafts together , forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed. This is accom- plished by simply moving the shift lever to one of these positions.
W ARNING! Y ou or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer case in the N (Neutral) position without first fully engaging the parking brake.
speed. This range (4L) provides additional traction and maximum pulling power for loose, slippery r oad surfaces only . Do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h). The “4WD Indicator Light” (located in the instrument cluster) will illuminate when the transfer case is shifted into the 4L position.
W ARNING! Failure to engage a position completely can cause transfer case damage or loss of power and vehicle control. Y ou could have a collision. Do not drive the vehicle unless the transfer case is fully engaged.
AXLE LOCK (TRU–LOK 姞 ) — RUBICON MODELS The AXLE LOCK switch is located on the instrument panel (to the left of the steering column). This feature will only activate when the following con- ditions are met: • Key in ignition, vehicle in 4L (Low) range.
ELECTRONIC SW A Y BAR DISCONNECT — IF EQUIPPED Y our vehicle may be equipped with an electronic discon- necting stabilizer/sway bar . This system allows greater front suspension travel in off-r oad situations. This system is controlled by the SW A Y BAR switch located on the instrument panel (to the left of the steering column).
sway bar should remain in on-road mode during normal driving conditions. W ARNING! Do not disconnect the stabilizer bar and drive on hard-surfaced roads or at speeds above 18 mph (29 km/h); you may lose control of the vehicle, which could result in serious injury .
T o return to on-road mode, pr ess the SW A Y BAR switch again. W ARNING! If the stabilizer/sway bar will not return to on-road mode, vehicle stability is greatly reduced. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle over 18 mph (29 km/h). Driving faster than 18 mph (29 km/h) may cause loss of control of the vehicle, which could result in serious injury .
OFF-ROAD DRIVING TIPS Side Step Removal – If Equipped NOTE: Prior to off-r oad usage, the side steps should be removed to prevent damage. 1. Remove the two nuts from the bodyside. 2. Remove one bolt from the underside of the vehicle. 3. Remove the side step assembly .
The Basics Of Off-Road Driving Y ou will encounter many types of terrain driving off- road. Y ou should be familiar with the terrain and ar ea before proceeding. There are many types of surface conditions: hard-packed dirt, gravel, rocks, grass, sand, mud, snow and ice.
extreme situations such as deep snow , mud, steep in- clines, or sand where additional low speed pulling power is needed. V ehicle speeds in excess of 25 mph (40 km/h) should be avoided when in 4L (Low) range. CAUTION! Do not use 4L (Low) range when operating the vehicle on dry pavement.
Mud Deep mud creates a great deal of suction around the tires and is very difficult to get through. Y ou should use second gear (manual transmission), or DRIVE (automatic transmission), with the transfer case in the 4L (Low) position to maintain your momentum.
Crossing Obstacles (Rocks And Other High Points) While driving off-r oad, you will encounter many types of terrain. These varying types of terrain bring dif ferent types of obstacles. Befor e proceeding, review the path ahead to determine the correct approach and your ability to safely recover the vehicle if something goes wrong.
CAUTION! • Never attempt to straddle a rock that is large enough to strike your axles or undercarriage. • Never attempt to drive over a rock which is large enough to contact the door sills.
CAUTION! Do not attempt to cross a log with a greater diameter than the running ground clearance or the vehicle will become high-centered. Getting High-Centered If you get hung up or high-centered on .
Before Climbing A Steep Hill As you approach a hill, consider its grade or steepness. Determine if it is too steep. Look to see what the traction is on the hill side trail.
Driving Downhill Before driving down a steep hill, you need to determine if it is too steep for a safe descent. What is the surface traction? Is the grade too steep to maintain a slow , controlled des.
If Y ou Stall Or Begin T o Lose Headway If you stall or begin to lose headway while climbing a steep hill, allow your vehicle to come to a stop and immediately apply the brake.
accelerate through the cr ossing. After crossing any water higher than the bottom of the axle differ entials, you should inspect all of the vehicle fluids for signs of water ingestion.
Crossing Puddles, Pools, Flooded Areas Or Other Standing W ater Puddles, pools, flooded or other standing water ar eas normally contain murky or muddy waters. These water types normally contain hidden obstacles and make it difficult to determine an accurate water depth, approach angle, and bottom condition.
W ARNING! Never drive through fast moving deep water . It can push your vehicle downstream, sweeping it out of control. This could put you and your passengers at risk of injury or drowning. After Driving Off-Road Off-r oad operation puts more stress on your vehicle than does most on-r oad driving.
W ARNING! Abrasive material in any part of the brakes may cause excessive wear or unpredictable braking. Y ou might not have full braking power when you need it to prevent a collision. If you have been operating your vehicle in dirty conditions, get your brakes checked and cleaned as necessary .
• Upon initial start-up in cold weather , the power steer- ing pump may make noise for a short amount of time. This is due to the cold, thick fluid in the steering system. This noise should be considered normal, and it does not in any way damage the steering system.
W ARNING! Fluid level should be checked on a level surface and with the engine off to prevent injury from moving parts and to ensure accurate fluid level reading. Do not overfill. Use only manufacturer’s recommended power steering fluid. If necessary , add fluid to r estore to the pr oper indicated level.
When the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch ON, the “Brake W arning Light” in the instrument cluster will illuminate. NOTE: • When the parking brake is applied and the automatic transmission is placed in gear , the “Brake W arning Light” will flash.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever .
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to aid the driver in maintaining vehicle control under adverse braking conditions. The system operates with a separate computer to modulate hydraulic pressur e to prevent wheel lock-up and help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces.
W ARNING! (Continued) • The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can they increase braking or steering efficiency beyond that afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
W ARNING! The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the ve- hicle, nor can they increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. The ABS cannot prevent collisions, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.
benefit of the system, you must apply continuous brak- ing pressure during the stopping sequence. Do not reduce brake pedal pressur e unless braking is no longer desired.
W ARNING! (Continued) another vehicle or object. T o avoid this, do not apply throttle while pressing the clutch pedal until you are ready to release the clutch.
HSA On Automatic T ransmission V ehicles The system will work in REVERSE, and all forward gears on vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission. The system will not activate if the vehicle is placed in NEUTRAL.
W ARNING! (Continued) • HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when leaving your vehicle. Also, be certain to leave the transmission in P ARK. Failure to follow these warnings may cause the vehicle to roll down the incline and could collide with another vehicle, object or person, and cause serious or fatal injury .
6. Cycle ignition switch OFF then ON. 7. If the sequence was completed properly , the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” will blink several times to confirm HSA is off. Steps 1-7 must be completed within 90 seconds to turn of f HSA. Repeat steps 1-7 to re-enable HSA functionality .
W ARNING! (Continued) capabilities of an ERM-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of others. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) This system enhances dir ectional control and stability of the vehicle under various driving conditions.
W ARNING! Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction af forded by prevailing road conditions. ESC cannot prevent accidents, in- cluding those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing.
When in ⬙ Partial Off ⬙ mode, the TCS portion of ESC has been disabled and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” will be illuminated.
ESC OFF switch. This will restor e normal “ESC On” mode of operation. W ARNING! W ith the ESC switched off, the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESC and ERM are unavailable. In an emergency evasive maneuver , the ESC and ERM systems will not engage to assist in maintaining stability .
W ARNING! W ith the ESC switched off, the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESC and ERM are unavailable. In an emergency evasive maneuver , the ESC and ERM systems will not engage to assist in maintaining stability . The “Full Off” mode is intended for of f- road use only .
ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light And ESC OFF Indicator Light The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. It should go out with the engine running.
The “ESC OFF Indicator Light” indicates the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is off. T railer Sway Control (TSC) TSC uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize an exces- sively swaying trailer and will take the appropriate actions to attempt to stop the sway .
Hill Descent Control (HDC) – If Equipped HDC is only intended for low speed of f-road driving. HDC maintains vehicle speed while descending hills in off-r oad driving conditions by applying the brakes when necessary . The symbol indicates the status of the Hill Descent Control (HDC) feature.
Enabling HDC 1. Shift the transfer case into 4WD LOW range. Refer to “Four-Wheel Drive Operation” in “Starting and Oper- ating” for further information. 2. Press the “Hill Descent” button. The “Hill Descent Control Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will turn on solid.

W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. • Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom- mended cold tire inflation pressure. Economy Improper inflation pressures can cause uneven wear pat- terns to develop across the tire tr ead.
CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the T ire Pressure Monitoring Sensor . Inflation pressures specified on the placard are always “cold tire inflation pressur e.
Tire Pressures For High Speed Operation The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or condi- tions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tire inflation pressur e is very important.

Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire And Wheel – If Equipped Y our vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire and wheel equivalent in look and function to the original equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear axle of your vehicle. This spare tire may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle.
Since this tire has limited tread life the original equip- ment tire should be repaired (or replaced) and r einstalled on your vehicle at the first opportunity . Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a conventional tire on the compact spare wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the compact spare tir e.
your original equipment tire, replace (or repair) the original equipment tire and reinstall on the vehicle at the first opportunity . W ARNING! Limited-use spares are for emergency use only . Instal- lation of this limited-use spare tire affects vehicle handling.
T read Wear Indicators T read wear indicators are in the original equipment tires to help you in determining when your tires should be replaced. These indicators ar e molded into the bottom of the tr ead grooves. They will appear as bands when the tr ead depth becomes 1/16 in (2 mm).
W ARNING! T ires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure. Y ou could lose control and have a collision resulting in serious injury or death.
W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of unapproved tires and wheels may change suspension dimensions and performance characteristics, result- ing in changes to steering, handling, and braking of your vehicle.
• P225/75R16 or a P235/65R17 tir e with the use of a traction device that meets the SAE type “Class S” specification is recommended. W ARNING! Using tires of different size and type (M+S, Snow) between front and rear axles can cause unpredictable handling.
TIRE ROT A TION RECOMMENDA TIONS The tires on the fr ont and rear of your vehicle operate at differ ent loads and perform differ ent steering, handling, and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates. These effects can be reduced by timely rotation of tires.
CAUTION! Proper operation of four-wheel drive vehicles de- pends on tires of equal size, type and circumference on each wheel. Any difference in tire size can cause damage to the transfer case. T ire rotation schedule should be followed to balance tire wear .

T railer And T ongue Weight Always load a trailer with 60% to 65% of the weight in the front of the trailer . This places 10% to 15% of the Gross T railer W eight (GTW) on the tow hitch of your vehicle.
NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle. Also, additional factory-installed options or dealer-installed options must be considered as part of the total load on your vehicle.
W ARNING! Improper towing can lead to a collision. Follow these guidelines to make your trailer towing as safe as possible: • Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be dif ficult for the driver to control.
W ARNING! (Continued) • T otal weight must be distributed between the tow vehicle and the trailer such that the following four ratings are not exceeded: 1.
T owing Requirements – T railer Brakes • Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake system or vacuum system of your vehicle with that of the trailer . This could cause inadequate braking and possible personal injury . • An electronically actuated trailer brake controller is requir ed when towing a trailer with electronically actuated brakes.
T owing Requirements – T railer Lights And W iring Whenever you pull a trailer , regar dless of the trailer size, stop lights and turn signals on the trailer are requir ed for motoring safety . The T railer T ow Package will include a four–pin wiring harness.
T owing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping and backing the trailer in an area away from heavy traffic. If using a manual transmission vehicle for trailer towing, all starts must be in first gear to avoid excessive clutch slippage.
Electronic Speed Control – If Equipped • Do not use in hilly terrain or with heavy loads. • When using the speed control, if you experience speed drops greater than 10 mph (16 km/h), disengage until you can get back to cruising speed. • Use speed control in flat terrain and with light loads to maximize fuel efficiency .

station or governmental agency for advice on how and where used oil and oil filters can be safely discarded in your area. Engine Oil Filter The engine oil filter should be r eplaced with a new filter at every engine oil change. Engine Oil Filter Selection This manufactur er’s engines have a full-flow type oil filter .
Engine Air Cleaner Filter Selection The quality of replacement engine air cleaner filters varies considerably . Only high quality filters should be used to assure most efficient service. MOP AR 威 engine air cleaner filters ar e a high quality filter and are r ecom- mended.
CAUTION! • It is essential when replacing the cables on the battery that the positive cable is attached to the positive post and the negative cable is attached to the negative post. Battery posts are marked positive (+) and negative (-) and are identified on the battery case.
W ARNING! • Use only refrigerants and compressor lubricants approved by the manufacturer for your air condi- tioning system. Some unapproved refrigerants are flammable and can explode, injuring you. Other unapproved refrigerants or lubricants can cause the system to fail, requiring costly repairs.
MOP AR 威 Spray White Lube or equivalent to assure quiet, easy operation and to protect against rust and wear . Prior to the application of any lubricant, the parts concerned should be wiped clean to remove dust and grit; after lubricating excess oil and grease should be removed.
Adding W asher Fluid The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers and the rear window washer (if equipped) is shared. The fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment. Be sur e to check the fluid level at regular intervals. Fill the r eservoir with windshield washer solvent only (not radiator anti- freeze).
into the passenger compartment. In addition, have the exhaust system inspected each time the vehicle is raised for lubrication or oil change. Replace as required. W ARNING! • Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless.
Under normal operating conditions, the catalytic con- verter will not requir e maintenance. However , it is im- portant to keep the engine properly tuned to assure proper catalyst operation and prevent possible catalyst damage. NOTE: Intentional tampering with emissions control systems can result in civil penalties being assessed against you.
Cooling System W ARNING! Y ou or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from your radiator . If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until the radiator has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling system pressure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.
Cooling System – Drain, Flush, And Refill If the engine coolant (antifreeze) is dirty or contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with a reliable cooling system cleaner . Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all deposits and chemicals.
CAUTION! (Continued) • Do not use water alone or alcohol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be compatible with the radiator engine coolant and may plug the radiator .
Please note that it is the owner’s responsibility to main- tain the proper level of protection against freezing ac- cording to the temperatures occurring in the area wher e the vehicle is operated. NOTE: Mixing engine coolant (antifreeze) types is not recommended and can result in cooling system damage.
Disposal Of Used Engine Coolant Used ethylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) is a regulated substance requiring proper disposal. Check with your local authorities to determine the disposal rules for your community .
If an examination of your engine compartment shows no evidence of radiator or hose leaks, the vehicle may be safely driven. The vapor will soon dissipate. • Do not overfill the coolant expansion bottle. • Check the coolant freeze point in the radiator and in the coolant expansion bottle.
Brake System In order to assure brake system performance, all brake system components should be inspected periodically . Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals. W ARNING! Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and possibly a collision.
W ARNING! • Use only manufacturer’s recommended brake fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Y our V ehicle” for further information. Using the wrong type of brake fluid can severely damage your brake system and/or impair its performance.
Automatic T ransmission – If Equipped Selection Of Lubricant It is important to use the pr oper transmission fluid to ensure optimum transmission performance and life.
CAUTION! • Using a transmission fluid other than the manufac- turer’s recommended fluid may cause deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or torque con- verter shudder . Using a transmission fluid other than that recommended by the manufacturer , and will require more frequent fluid and filter changes.
4. Place the shift lever momentarily into each gear posi- tion (allowing time for the transmission to fully en- gage in each position), ending with the shift lever in P ARK. 5. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean and reinsert it until seated. 6. Remove the dipstick again and note the fluid level on both sides.
7. Check for leaks. Release the parking brake. NOTE: T o prevent dirt and water from entering the transmission after checking or replenishing fluid, make sure that the dipstick cap is properly reseated. It is normal for the dipstick cap to spring back slightly from its fully seated position, as long as its seal remains engaged in the dipstick tube.
Fluid Level Check Check the fluid level by removing the fill plug. The fluid level should be between the bottom of the fill hole and a point not more than 3/16 in (4.76 mm) below the bottom of the hole. Add fluid, if necessary , to maintain the proper level.
Adding Fluid Fluid should be added only at filler hole until fluid begins to run out of the hole. Drain First remove the fill plug (B), then the drain plug (C). The recommended tightening torque for the drain and fill plugs is 15 to 25 ft lbs (20 to 34 N·m).
Selection Of Lubricant Use only manufactur er’s recommended fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Y our V ehicle” for further information.
